2017 Map of East Prairie
USGS Topo · Published 2017About this map
The town of East Prairie serves as the primary hub in this low-lying agricultural landscape of Southeast Missouri. Located in the Bootheel region, the area is defined by a sophisticated network of drainage infrastructure, such as Maple Slough Ditch and Ash Ditch, which reclaimed the fertile soils of Dogwood Bottoms for cultivation. This 2017 survey illustrates the persistent importance of the section-line road system, where routes like State Hwy B and State Hwy C connect dispersed rural communities. Smaller settlements such as Dogwood are preserved here alongside vital genealogical landmarks, including Dogwood Cem and Armour Cem. The boundary between Mississippi Co and New Madrid Co cuts through the western portion of the sheet, highlighting the jurisdictional divide in this heavily engineered alluvial plain.
